    Chicken and Broccoli Stir-fry

    Ingredients

     

    • 1 pound chicken breast (about 2 breasts), cubed
    • 3 scallions, whites only, thinly sliced on an angle
    • 2 cloves garlic, minced
    • 1 -inch piece peeled fresh ginger, minced
    • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
    • 2 tablespoons sugar
    • 1 tablespoon, plus 1 teaspoon cornstarch
    • 1 1/4 teaspoons salt
    • 1 tablespoon dry sherry
    • 1 tablespoon dark sesame oil
    • About 1/3 cup water
    • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
    • 5 to 6 cups broccoli, trimmed sliced stalks and medium florets (keep the 2 cuts separate)
    • 3/4 to 1 teaspoon red chili flakes, optional
    • 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
    • Garnish: toasted sesame seeds, optional
    • Serving suggestion: Jasmine rice

    Directions

    In a medium bowl, toss the chicken with the scallion whites, about half the garlic and ginger, the soy sauce, sugar, 1 teaspoon of the cornstarch, 1 teaspoon of the salt, the sherry, and the sesame oil. Marinate at room temperature for 15 minutes. Mix the remaining cornstarch with

    1/3 cup water.

    Heat a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the oil and heat. Add the broccoli stems, and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Add the florets and the remaining garlic, ginger, 2 tablespoons of water, and season with 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper. Stir-fry until the broccoli is bright green but still crisp, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate. https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRommZ-mZEbro3P77_C9Huwcln3I5AQLG-0Quf10oRgC1tBGqU908P-7eRT3NNlThpNb_eVUSp8aOWNOn7HTgQmD6aoW5IvbwsbL6Lyo-3wjt3ajlvoKO8_oXNInTHuWoZeMoPjimSBBZ-/s1600/IMG_1289.JPG

    Get the skillet good and hot again, and then heat 2 more tablespoons oil. Add the chicken and chili flakes if using. Stir-fry until the chicken loses its raw color and gets a little brown, about 3 minutes. Add the hoisin sauce, return the broccoli to the pan and toss to heat through. Stir in the reserved cornstarch mixture and bring to a boil to thicken. Add more water if need to thin the sauce, if necessary. Taste and season with salt and pepper, if you like. Mound the stir-fry on a serving platter or divide among 4 plates and garnish with sesame seeds; serve with rice.

    Notes: The garlic and ginger can be chopped together in a minichopper to save time.

    Scallion greens can also be used to garnish, if you like that extra onion-y flavor and you want to use up the scallions.

    The broccoli stems are used (love all that fiber) to add textural contrast and also to help bulk up the dish, and why waste them?

    INGREDIENTS FOR FRUIT SALAD

     1/2 cup sugar
    Winter Fruit Salad 1 1 -inch piece ginger, peeled and thinly sliced
     1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise and seeds scraped  out
     1 lemon
     5 large navel or blood oranges
     2 mangoes, peeled and diced
     2 firm bananas, peeled and diced
     5 kiwis, peeled and diced
     12 kumquats, very thinly sliced crosswise, seeds  removed
     1 cup pomegranate seeds (from 1 pomegranate)



    Directions

    Combine the sugar, 2 cups water, the ginger and vanilla seeds and pod in a saucepan. Use a 

    vegetable peeler to remove wide strips of zest from the lemon and 1 orange, add to the 

    saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat and simmer 5 minutes.

    Refrigerate until cold. Meanwhile, peel the remaining oranges with a paring knife, cutting along 

    the natural curve of the fruit. Hold an orange over a large bowl and cut along both sides of each 

    membrane to free the  segments, letting them fall into the bowl. Squeeze each empty

     membrane to release the juices. Repeat with the remaining oranges. Add the mangoes

    , bananas, kiwis, kumquats and pomegranate seeds and gently toss. Pour the syrup over the 

    fruit and chill overnight. Before serving, remove the citrus zest, ginger and vanilla pod. Spoon 

    the fruit and syrup into bowls. To remove pomegranate seeds, cut the fruit into quarters, then

     break apart in a bowl of water. Skim off the pith that floats to the top and drain the seeds.
